My Story
Hi there, I’m Lesley— the proud owner and creator of Let It Be Charcuterie. I love food, music, dancing, and my favourite store is the grocery store!
​
My journey into charcuterie traces back to my Austrian grandmother's kitchen, where she crafted beautiful, charcuterie-style "Grandma Lunches". I loved the slower paced way of eating and how beautiful her plates were. Inspired by those early experiences, I developed my own passion for styling, experimenting, and pairing foods.
​
This passion took on new meaning after the loss of my father, reminding me of life's fleeting nature, prompting me to leave a 20+-year career in advertising to pursue what truly moves me. Leveraging my professional skills and personal experiences, including managing my children's eight food allergies, I craft each board with meticulous care, ensuring both safety and quality. I source only the finest artisan ingredients from local Burlington vendors, infusing each board with creativity and care.
​
Thank you for supporting my local business. I am thrilled to share the art of charcuterie with you, enhancing your gatherings with beauty and taste.
Lesley
